  1. A Denotational Concern over the Division of UU and OU

    Let me try to give my two cents on this. From my understanding, we start out with a metagame of all available Pokemon (excluding NFEs). Then, we ban Pokemon which we feel overcentralize the metagame we have. We call this Ubers. Out of the remaining pool of Pokemon, we determine which are...
  2. The World Cup of Pokemon III - Round Three

    Missed batpig by around 20 minutes today. And I won't be around for the next three days... Already PMed Shiv about my situation. Sorry Asia :(
  3. A Pokemon Riddle

    But in the first (and actual) question, it doesn't say that Barkers is weak to Dark, leaving us with a lot more possibilities such as the aforementioned Overheat Primeape.
  4. A Pokemon Riddle

    Quite a number of those learn Grass Knot as well. Starmie, Azelf, Espeon, Jynx, Mr. Mime are the possible OHKOs, if I'm not mistaken. Mewtwo could be holding Specs for all we know.

    But Mewtwo outsped it... Unless Mewtwo had Scarf to outspeed Deoxys. Which is possible, but highly doubtful imo.
  6. A Pokemon Riddle

    I'm guessing Celebi Leaf Storm who did not expect HP Bug from Mewtwo? Also if this were the answer, I would assume that Mewtwo having 31 IVs was an error on his part... Anyway there's still the possibility that Barkers was Scarfed! But that would complicate things too much.
  7. A Pokemon Riddle

    But at the time Pikachu had its Sub up, Barkers was already at -6. Barkers could be the Lati's, Rapidash, Garchomp, Ninetales, Celebi, Shaymin, Salamence, Houndoom, or Arcanine among others. From this list, I see only Shaymin and Houndoom as possible candidates for using Rest.
  8. A Pokemon Riddle

    It can't be Sudowoodo, since it has to be faster than Pikachu yet slower that Raikou. Assuming that all IVs are 31 (as stated above), Barkers must be weak to Dark since Mewtwo's Hidden Power is SE against it. Some more assumptions I'm making, assuming that both battlers are competent: 1...
